Stay | Igloo Village: Kakslauttanen, Finland

It may be -26°F outside, but inside the comfort of your thermal glass igloo, it’s far from rough. With a campus of 20 glass ensconced igloos, Igloo Village in Kakslauttanen, Finland is a star-gazing bonanza. Capture views of the Northern Lights and Arctic stars while you bask in a fully appointed room dome complete with ultra-comfortable beds, hot sauna and even an ice hole for blisteringly cool afternoon refreshers. For braver, warmer-blooded guests, the village even offers up traditional snow igloos that keep the temperature a balmy -20°F. Thankfully, warm down sleeping bags (rated to -30°F) and woolen nightwear are provided. Open between December through April.

In 2011, Jimmy Chin climbed one of the hardest peaks in the world, Shark's Fin on Mount Meru. What's more impressive is that he filmed the adventure, then turned it into a documentary that just won big at Sundance.
